Thanks for that interesting video, Herr Oberst.
Not unlike other brands.......the owners of these bikes have their own preferences of which years or generations they prefer.
Mine will always be the 1st & 2nd Gen bikes - plus the 3rd Gen a close second.
There's no disputing the advances in technology but my goodness what they did to the body work on those "newer" versions (for me anyway) is very off putting....no soul!
I just finished replacing a faulty fuel pump for my '84 and will take her out for a test ride shortly.
I find working on these bikes as rewarding as when I did the same on my first Porsche - an '81 SC Targa.
You tend to stop every once in a while - step back - and just admire the simplistic beauty......
